Question

Why am I getting a black and white picture?

Answer

Normally a black and white picture is caused by incorrect cabling. This can happen if a composite cable is plugged into a component connection or if a component cable is plugged into a composite connection. Make sure that the correct cables are connected from the source to the back of the TV. Most of the Philips TV’s composite connections are located on the side of the TV.

Please see the picture below for the correct way to connect using composite cables.
